I had been waiting for Daddy. I was struck by Madison Young’s writing the first time I encountered it. Madison Young’s work as a feminist pornographer, artist, and writer had influenced my own scholarship in various ways, while resonating with me personally as well. I first saw Madison Young in Emilie Jouvet’s Too Much Pussy when I was
We all know that many (some harsher folks might say all) academic presentations can be….boring, dense, snoozy, and sometimes pretentious. But, here’s the thing, they don’t have to be. I started presenting at conferences in my undergrad, and didn’t really slow down too much since then. I love conference presentations, they allow my ideas and work
The Tantus Mikey O2 is a dreamboat. It looks like a short fat dollop of cream. As sweet as it appeared, I knew when I requested Mikey that I was taking a risk.I wanted to try a girthy dildo, but I was also unsure of how it would go. What’s nice about Mikey is that I found it to be nice
I knew this day would come. I had read about this day on I don’t even know how many blogs. I’m talking, of course, about the day I would be spoiled by dual density silicone. Wrangling the Flurry O2 from its package, I knew from the moment I squeezed its squishy firmness in my hand, that this was

Discovering The Brat There’s nothing quite like those moments when you find out that there’s a word for what you feel, when you feel a concept snap into place. In moments like these, I feel connected to histories, experiences, and something so far beyond the “me.” Finding the words “bratty bottom” was like that. I first heard the
Well, that, and I have a thing for rooting for the little guy. The Splish from Tantus is a wee bitty thing at 4.5 insertable inches and a max diameter of 1″.. What’s the Splish and what’s it supposed to do? The Tantus Splish is a body-safe, 100% silicone non-vibrating dildo. It is safe for both anal and vaginal use. Here’s
Today I’d like to spend some time talking about my favorite toy: the Magic Wand Original, formerly known as the Hitachi. When I tell my partner to “Grab the vibrator” or my partner asks me if I’d like them to “grab the vibrator,” we’re both referring to the Magic Wand. In my household, the Magic Wand
Turned sideways, oh yes it must be to the far Left, not unlike my politics, I am wiggling the handle in a desperate fever. I am crazed, clenched around it, and as soon as I press the wand against me and the vibration hits my clit I feel myself involuntarily clamp even harder. It begins
